Well, any computer file has potential for corruption. And there's lots and lots of settings for tuning. If you're using phpMyAdmin or similar, there's likely a "Settings"page.
My primary MariaDB system still under maintenance does a daily mysqldump to SQL, compressed, and shipped off to a warm standby system, where it's reconstituted, so the data is rebuilt nightly on the standby systems. The main system is dumped and rebuilt monthly or so.
